Ive just seen a professional acadamy advertising their Gel polish course for "anyone". So much for being mani trained. Its getting too slack. Ive lost 3 customers who had gelish as they know how to do it themselves now.
That and the fact my new suppliers didnt even check that i was qualified before selling me pro products at trade prices is really starting to grind my gears.
Theres enough people in this industry without untrained/unregisterd/just any people taking our customers.
Its just too loose these days i wonder how im going to survive this influx of people coming out of nowhere for an easy quid and doing beauty/nails.
Hairdressers now train in nails and lashes for like £50 minimum. That as well is affecting our custom.
What happend to the good old NVQ and further training if necessary? I wish the Nvq was still the way, back when there was no cheap/quick courses. The Nvq or whatever it is now needs to be updated to include the lot!! and be the qualification with recognition and qudos!
We are professionals not "people who paint nailz coz im dead good at doin me own"
TIME TO TIGHTEN IT UP !!!!!
I couldn't agree more
